Baicheng Beach
白城沙滩
A city beach across from the Baicheng gate of Xiamen University. It is the starting point of the Ring Road's wooden boardwalk and offers views of Gulangyu and Yanwu Bridge.
Baicheng Beach sits right beside the Baicheng gate of Xiamen University and is the most convenient beach in the city. The sand is fine and soft, and at dusk you can watch the sun set behind Yanwu Bridge and in the direction of Gulangyu. The beach connects to the wooden boardwalk of the Ring Road. Walking east takes you to Hulishan Fortress and Zengcuoan, forming part of the classic walking route from Xiamen University to Baicheng, Hulishan, and Zengcuoan. Entry is free. Metro Line 2 and BRT do not run directly here, so take a bus to the Xiamen University Baicheng stop. In summer, pay attention to swimming safety signs. At low tide, you can dig for shellfish.
